The city of Tolentino is located on a valley a few kilometers and halfway from the sea and the Sibillini mountains. The heart of the city consists of the square with the clock tower, the alleys of the historic center, the Basilica of San Nicola, the Cathedral of San Catervo, the International Museum of Biumor Caricature, the Napoleonic Halls of Palazzo Parisani-Bezzi, the Castle della Rancia, the Terme di S. Lucia, the Vaccaj Theatre, the Fiastra Abbey, immersed in a nature reserve, a route dotted with ancient buildings, churches and museums. The Basilica of San Nicola contains one of the wonders of Tolentino: the famous cycle of frescoes in the chapel, where the life of the Saint is narrated. The work of the Giotto school has recently been attributed to the master Pietro da Rimini and his collaborators. http://turismo.comune.tolentino.mc.it/ There are works of art “considered minor” that are worth a trip, to which it is worth dedicating a weekend for a visit. One of these is certainly the Basilica of San Nicola di Tolentino: a treasure chest of rare beauty hidden in a valley among our hills that I strongly recommend you visit if you want to spend half a day of “wise” tourism in the Marche.

There is something in the spa that smacks of history: that smacks of these rolling hills and its ancient inhabitants who drew health and natural cures from the waters that flowed from springs known by popular tradition. Hospitable spas for everyone and reachable from all over the surrounding area. Suburban spas, perhaps, but advanced spas which, from a distinctly sanitary choice in the treatment of respiratory tract diseases, so widespread in our society, have been able to broaden the range of their services, touching on all sectors of physical well-being and involving all age groups of the healthcare population. Spas of well-being, as taught by the Romans, convinced supporters of their beneficial effects. Ancient spas, due to their tradition, but modern spas included in the widespread Italian circuit where the spas constitute an important and widespread healthcare network. Organized spas, full of up-to-date equipment and instruments, equipped with a rich multidisciplinary medical team, capable of providing in-depth data and modern studies of extreme usefulness for undertaking epidemiological and preventive medicine research.

It is difficult to find a suitable adjective to describe our region in which every town, every town, every village preserves small and large treasures that are hidden in an ancient atmosphere, with a medieval flavor, a collected atmosphere that does not show off its riches and indeed he almost tends to hide them with a sort of reluctance. The Marche is also the Region of the Hundred Historic Theatres. Then there is Urbisaglia which is one of the most important archaeological destinations in the Marche.Macerata, Loreto, Recanati, Urbisaglia, Camerino, San Severino Marche, Treia, Pollenza, San Ginesio, Caldarola, Sarnano, Visso, Macereto, Ascoli Piceno, Fermo, Torre di Palme, Cingoli, Fabriano…

Cultural tourism in the Province of Macerata: Abbeys, Cathedrals, Baroque Churches, Historical re-enactments, Historical Theaters and Museums.

Among Basilicas, Churches and Abbeys we remember the Church of S.Claudio al Chienti, a supreme example of Romanesque architecture, the Abbey of Fiastra, immersed in a nature reserve, the Church of S.Maria a Piè di Chienti, another jewel of Romanesque art , such as Santa Maria della Rocca in Offida, not to forget the Church of Sant’Eustachio in Belforte del Chienti which preserves the famous Polyptych by Boccati, etc.

For nature lovers, there is the possibility of visiting the Fiastra Abbey Nature Reserve, an inestimable heritage of this area, the famous Frasassi Caves, a masterpiece of nature that will project you into a surreal dimension. Se amate le passeggiate, la natura selvaggia e i panorami mozzafiato, scoprirete nei pressi i tesori dei Monti Sibillini. Altrimenti potete vivere momenti indimenticabili presso le stupende spiagge del litorale marchigiano da Sirolo a S.Benedetto del Tronto.
